Combination of Radiochemical and Activation Techniques for the Detection of Radionuclides
Determination of radionuclides may be performed in principle either by direct activity measurement, usually termed radiometric analysis, or by mass measurement. A technique for the mass determination available to many nuclear research institutes is neutron activation analysis (NAA). Basic approaches for the NAA determination of radionuclides (both independent and in combination with alpha spectrometric measurement) are presented and examples are given for the determination of Tc-99, I-129, Cs-135, uranium and thorium isotopes, Pa-231 and for Np-237.
